Mary Virginia Orna is Professor of Chemistry at the College of New Rochelle, New Rochelle, NY (mvorna@cnr.edu), although her professional history includes service in government, not-for-profit institutions and industry. She received a B.S. in Chemistry from Chestnut Hill College and Ph.D. in Analytical Chemistry from Fordham University. She has lectured and published widely in the areas of color chemistry and archaeological chemistry and, following a sabbatical leave at the Institute of Fine Arts, New York University, she has maintained a research relationship with art historians in the area of pigment content of medieval manuscripts. Among her many professional activities, she has presented plenary lectures and named lectureships on at least a dozen different occasions. She is a tour speaker on the roster of the American Chemical Society and has been an invited lecturer to every part of the United States and many countries in Europe, the Middle East, and the South Pacific. Her many publications have appeared in the Journal of Chemical Education, Color Research and Application, Studies in Conservation, Analytical Chemistry, Microchemical Journal, Journal of Biological Chemistry, American Chemical Society monographs, and various other journals. She has also authored numerous book chapters and encyclopedia articles, three books and co-edited eight others.
